Now I'm not the least bit "glad" that Ratzinger was elected to the chair of Peter, but it seems to me that, properly motivated, he has the awareness of what needs doing on the ecumenical front, especially relative to the Orthodox Churches.

Children, go where I send thee,
How shall I send thee?
I'm gonna send thee one by one
One for the little bitty - baby
born, born, born in Bethlehem.
